Watercolour Depth and Pencil Control in One Elegant Tool

The Derwent Watercolour Pencil in Blue Violet Lake gives you the precision of a drawing pencil and the luminous, blendable quality of watercolour paint - all in a single, beautifully crafted instrument.

Watercolour work demands consistency, and these pencils deliver it. A soft, smooth 3.5mm water-soluble strip sits inside a hexagonal Californian incense cedar barrel for a secure grip and effortless sharpening. Use them dry for detailed linework, then activate the pigment with water to create gentle, flowing colour washes. Blue Violet Lake is highly pigmented for strong colour purity and reliable light fastness across the range.

Unlike permanent ink-based pencils such as the Derwent Inktense range, Watercolour pigment remains re-wettable once dry - letting you lift, blend, and rework colour without starting again. That flexibility makes this range ideal for layering techniques and mixed-media projects.

This box of 6 is a practical choice for artists, students, and educators who want a reliable supply of a favourite shade. Derwent Academy is a trusted name in quality artist materials, and these pencils are built to perform at every level.

FAQs

Yes. Derwent Watercolour Pencils work perfectly as standard drawing pencils when used dry. The soft 3.5mm core blends and layers easily without water, making them versatile for both dry and wet techniques.
Inktense pencils use an ink-based formula that becomes permanent once dry and produces intense, vivid colour. Watercolour pencils use a traditional watercolour pigment that stays re-wettable after drying, giving a softer, more subtle result that can be reworked repeatedly.
This listing includes a box of 6 Derwent Watercolour Pencils, all in the Blue Violet Lake shade. It is a convenient option for artists who go through a favourite colour frequently or who teach classes.
Yes. The smooth, soft core and forgiving re-wettable pigment make these pencils accessible for beginners learning watercolour techniques. They are equally at home in the hands of experienced artists who want precise colour control alongside traditional watercolour effects.
Watercolour paper is the ideal surface, as it handles wet media without buckling. Cold-press and hot-press papers both work well. The pencils can also be used dry on cartridge paper or as part of mixed-media work on heavier art boards.
